Check for Duplicate value BeforeUpdate

Hello all, I have a problem with updating on my form.
I have a form, TrainingHistory, that is linked to a table by the same
name. There are three fields showing: FullName, ClassName, and
DateTaken. For each person, I am only interested in the MOST RECENT
date they took any given class. So what I want is to be able to enter
a name and class, and have Access check the table for this combination
of name and class. If such an entry already does exist, I would like
the form to bring up that entry, and that entry alone, for editing of
the date. There should also be a message explaining what just
happened. I was thinking that there should be some procedure in the
BeforeUpdate event that does this, but I have no idea where to begin
with the code for it. For bringing up the record, I was thinking that
if a record were found, the form could just bring up all records but
apply a filter with the values that were already entered.
My form is set to data entry=yes and is in Single Form view.

Returning highest value
I have a list with value_name and its value. Is there a formula tha
can look down the list and pick the highest value and return th
value_name
For example
_Value_Name_ _Value_
Value A 5
Value B 10
Value C 33
Value D 8
Value E 51
Value F 32
Value G 47
Value H 9
Value I 41
So the formula would return Value E as its result.
Would be much appreciated :

Have you tried using the format cell option.
r-click -> Format Cells -> Number tab -> select Number in the window and you
can specify the decimal places, and there are custom options as well.

Check names not working for multiple address books / contactsHello!
I have upgraded from outlook 2003 to outlook 2007, my contacts are stored in
pst. I used to be able to search for a name via check names and it displayed
me all the results from global address list and from my contacts, but now it
only does one. It does not matter which one I set in the checking order,
whichever is top will be the one that provides the result. I would like it to
show me both results, how would I go about to set that up?
Thank you

Authorizing checks with RMSI recently removed PCCharge and setup my syetm to work with a preferred
merchant provider to allow native processing of credit & debit cards. Since
check verification/authorization was handled by PCCharge to Telecheck, check
authorization is now not being done.
How is check authorization accomplished using a preferred provider?
Thanks,
Richard
Unfortunately, it's not. PC Charge is the only option for check processing
in RMS as far as I know. TPI or some other vendor may support it through an
add-in, but RMS as shipped has no way of doing both checks and debit...

How do I create Check list1.I am new to excel and want to create a simple check list. I would like to
have the first column check boxes and then the following columns discription
and notes. Can someone give me a step by step on how to do this. I have
created spread sheets but am not familiar with check boxes.
2.Also, Can someone tell me the difference between Access and Excel?

1) Not sure what you're aiming to do with the checkboxes, but if you right

want either the 'forms' toolbox or the 'controls' toolbox. Genera...

Active / Dynamic Filtered List (changes w/ change in cell value)I'd like to be able to have a filtered list change AUTOMATICALLY based
on a criteria value (entered in a cell outside the filtered data
range). What is the simplest way to do this? Autofilter is close, but
it will not update the results dynamically.
You can use programming to update the filter if a cell on the worksheet
is changed. There are examples here:
http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html
Under Filters, look for 'Product List by Week Number'
and 'Filter Rows for Text String'

However we have noticed that when this attribute is displayed on selection

presume there is code behind particular list values and want to restore the
old values with the same list value. We have a backup of the DB available

Preventing multiple check boxes from being checkedI have a worksheet with over 20 rows of check boxes with 5 check boxes in
each row. (from the forms toolbox) I would like to prevent the user from
checking more than one box in each row. Is this possible?
BTW, this forum has been a great help. I'm so glad that expert Excel users
are so willing to share their wealth of knowledge.
Thanks again.
Jae
Put them in a group box, again from the forms toolbar.
Drag the group box onto the sheet, then drag the checkboxes in.

Check text field value against underlying table or query of combo boxHello,
I have a form on which the user can enter new records or update
existing ones.
If the user enters a new record on the form, I would like to have an
'After Update' event on one of the text fields, which is the item# to
check if the value entered already exists in the underlying table,
tbl_item. How can I call the table from the 'After Update' event of
the text field and check for that value in the table?

Printing ChecksI'm having a problem printing checks from Money 2003.
I have three accounts that come up in one .mny file. Two of the accounts

You could use =SEARCH("3",A1) where A1 is the cell with the data. Be
aware however tha it will also match 31, 33 (twice) etc.

Employee Check Format-GraphicalDoes anyone know of a TK that shows how to convert one of the employee check

There's no secret here. Just un-check the "Text Report" option in the Report
Definition window. And then modify the report so it looks like you want it.
This will take some time. The reports don't transfer from text to graphical
nicely.

Which the maximum of characters of value in a cell?When I impute a numerical sequence in a cell with more than 15 digits, excel
does not conserve the typed value, modifying the digits from 16th typed. I
ask: it is necessary to adjust some configuration in excel?
Hi
Excel's numerical limit is 15 digits. If you need to use more than 15,
you'll have to enter it as text - either by formatting the cell as text
before you type into it, or by starting the entry with a '
